Studio Add-On

The Whitney offers an additional hour of hands-on art-making in the Hearst Artspace. This opportunity to explore materials and experiment with processes connects well with a gallery tour. *

Tour Scheduling

Please fill in three choices for date and time. Requested dates should be at least four weeks away.

Whenever possible, we recommend that groups with special needs visit the Museum when we are closed to the public (all day Tuesday as well as Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday at 9:45am). With less crowded galleries and elevators, we find that this provides a more sensory-friendly experience!
